If you’ve ever had the opportunity to play the party game Dixit you know how great it is. If you haven’t it’s kind of like Apples to Apples only a lot more abstract and imaginative. 
Now there is an app available to play the game online with people all over the world with a wifi connection. It’s called iDixit (note the “i” in front of the name). And the coolest part is the storytellers record their stories in their own voices so you can hear the different accents when you play with people from other countries. 
But this game does not have a lot of players. I log in sometimes and wait for a long time only to connect with one other player. The minimum is three. So far I’ve only had the chance to play one full three-person game. But the ideal number of players would be 5 or 6.
So I’m plugging this game because it is available for free until the end of the month. Download it. Every now and again login and see if there’s a game to join. I think you’ll dig it.
don’t suppose you’d tell us your id so we can play with you.
^this. How fun would that be?
I found it, downloaded on my iphone, did the tutorial. but can’t figure out how to join a game. i don’t understand the passwords to join a game or how I would communicate that to strangers.
too bad, looks neat.
sounds FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Found it. I was searching for a PC free download, downloaded the version on my iPod and THEN figured out that was what you meant because the have the option for online play. Got it!
Huh, never heard of it, sounds fun!
i love this game! i had no idea there was an iversion. thanks, i’m downloading it now.
Just added!
okay… how does one find a game to join? From the tutorial it does look fun, Jorge… Thanks
currently in nomad mode but will fix it for dixit when I land back in Oz
I just downloaded the app, looks fun!! Buuuut…. I got to a point where there were four of us waiting to play. Why couldn’t we? Do you *have* to have 6??
Well now I am thoroughly pumped to play, but finding no players online as well.. sincerely hope the user base gets bigger soon!
I love the regular version of that game! If only I had something to play iDixit.
Thanks I’ll give it a try. Hope I get a chance to play you. Thanks again Donna
Played my first game! Such fun!! I’m much better at guessing than storytelling though..
Man, oh_pook, if you’re still on here, have to tell you I love your sense of humor! Your ‘sorry bout them apples’ card had me laughing out loud.
that was fun! thanks!
Added- can’t wait to play.
there is nobody on
en 2009 en españa el juego dixit fue premiado mejor juego de mesa 2009.
I cant add games
((( , tengo que mirar que pasa, un abrazo Jorge y gracias por la recomendacion del juego.Thankssssss
droid market doesnt have it. insert sad face.
I love this game!
Now even on the iphone! Jee!
Here’s the Link to the app in the US iTunes store. It might work for other countries.
i found this review for the game
http://boardgamegeek.com/blogpost/3015/ios-review-idixit
says only available with ipad 2x, ipod touch, iphone.
and, i went 0 for 3.
this article is from june 15 and says there were issues with the app at launch…3 weeks later, am guessing it’s resolved.
I’ll give it a shot.
I tried to add it but I only have an iPhone 3G and this app is not compatible with my phone.
Also, it’s only free until July 31 it says.
Downloaded and played the tutorial. Sounds like fun indeed. Now I too am waiting for other players.
Fun
but your right never anyone on to play
I’ve had an opportunity to play a few times (though not yet an entire game). Severe lack of people. Too bad, it’s fun!
Couple of issues I’ve seen-when someone bails that is playing, it ruins the game for everyone else. Wish those players could just drop & the game continue. Frustrating.
Will keep pursuing in hopes that word spreads, though!
Totally. Or their wifi cuts out and the the game ends up freezing. I’ve only made it to the end once or twice.
Every time I peek in on your blog and see the title of this one I think “iDixit needs prayers” and wonder for a split second “what’s wrong with iDixit and why does it need my prayers?”
Looks fun, not crazy about the recording your voice part, wish you could type your “story” in.
I want to play, but it’s not for Android, is it…:’(
Alas, another Blackberry user left out in the cold.
Sounds like fun, but it doesn’t look like there’s a version for Android.
Exactly what I found
I tried to find the download for my droid, it doesn’t exist. Sorry, this sounds like it would have been fun.
The tutorial looks fun. Hopefully enough people will download the game for players to actually show up. Thanks for sharing Jorge.
I’d never heard of this game! I don’t have any of the compatible gadgets so I got the board game. It’s awesome!
I think I’ll look into it. Finding the time to play is another thing altogether, however. Still, it sounds like fun! Just how awesome would it be to play you, Jorge!!!!
If they add it to android!
Well, you got me hooked when you posted about PvZ, so I’ll head over to the App Store later. Thanks guy!
COMIC CON! I am so excited. Can’t wait to see you there. Would love to get a picture with you!!
Chillin’ on iDixit… people have popped in and out, haven’t made it to three people yet… join us!!! (travislund)
Travis – I played against you last night (stacey1045) only full game I’ve been able to play. Find me on Facebook, Let me know when you’re on. Hopefully we can get enough players.
Downloaded, will be trying it out shortly. Thanks for the tip, Jorge!
I downloaded it, did the tutorial, and it looks really fun, but I haven’t been able to play. There’s never any games, I’ve left it open for hours with no luck.
We love this game. It’s such a great imagination builder for our kids. It doesn’t hurt that the artwork on the cards is fantastic. I’ll go check out the app now!
Love this game and have only had luch with one finished game. There were 5 of us so it took a little time but was fantastic to hear the other voices. I’m really hoping more people get on.
It’s still free (despite the 31th july notice) and waiting for players.
At the moment I’m waiting. Come and play!
Just downloaded the game. LOVE the idea but have yet to play a game b/c lack of players. It is still free, so please everyone download it!
anyone like to play now??
Happy new year!!
I made a new room, but i can’t find other players. Anyone like to play now??
